Energy is calculated as power*time, so give the wattage of 1200 W (equivalent to 1200 Joules/second) and time of 30 seconds, multiplying these gives 36000 J or 36 kJ of electrical energy.

If electrical charge or current is needed: Power = voltage * current, so given the power of 1200 watts and voltage of 120 V, current is 1200 W / 120 V = 10 Amperes. Charge is calculated by multiplying 10 A*30 s = 300 C.

Consider a double Atwood machine constructed as follows: A mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

Answer : x ( acceleration of mass 4m ) = \frac{g}{7}

The top pulley rotates because it has to keep the center of mass of the system at equilibrium

Explanation:

Given data:

mass suspended = 4 meters

mass suspended at other end = 3 meters

first we have to express the kinetic and potential energy equations

The general kinetic energy of the system can be written as

T = \frac{4m}{2} x^2  + \frac{3m}{2} (-x+y)^2 + \frac{m}{2} (-x-y)^2

T = 4mx^2 + 2my^2 -2mxy  

also the general potential energy can be expressed as

U = -4mgx-3mg(-x+y)-mg(-x-y)+constant=-2mgy +constant

The Lagrangian of the problem can now be setup as

L =4mx^2 +2my^2 -2mxy +2mgy + constant

next we will take the Euler-Lagrange equation for the generalized equations :

Euler-Lagrange  equation = 4x-y =0\\-2y+x +g = 0

solving the equations simultaneously

x ( acceleration of mass 4m ) = \frac{g}{7}

The top pulley rotates because it has to keep the center of mass of the system at equilibrium

Two vertical springs have identical spring constants, but one has a ball of mass m hanging from it and the other has a ball of m
OverLord2011 [107]

To solve this problem we will start from the definition of energy of a spring mass system based on the simple harmonic movement. Using the relationship of equality and balance between both systems we will find the relationship of the amplitudes in terms of angular velocities. Using the equivalent expressions of angular velocity we will find the final ratio. This is,

The energy of the system having mass m is,

E_m = \frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2

The energy of the system having mass 2m is,

E_{2m} = \frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2

For the two expressions mentioned above remember that the variables mean

m = mass

\omega =Angular velocity

A = Amplitude

The energies of the two system are same then,

E_m = E_{2m}

\frac{1}{2} m\omega_1^2A_1^2=\frac{1}{2} (2m)\omega_1^2A_1^2

\frac{A_1^2}{A_2^2} = \frac{2\omega_2^2}{\omega_1^2}

Remember that

k = m\omega^2 \rightarrow \omega^2 = k/m

Replacing this value we have then

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{\frac{2(k/m_2)}{(k/m_1)^2}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m_1}{m_1}}

But the value of the mass was previously given, then

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{m}{2m}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = \sqrt{2} \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}}

\frac{A_1}{A_2} = 1

Therefore the ratio of the oscillation amplitudes it is the same.

"What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas i
asambeis [7]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The Figure shows a container that is sealed at the top by a moveable piston, Inside the container is an ideal gas at 1.00 atm. 20.0°C and 1.00 L.

"What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant?"

Answer:

the pressure inside the container become 0.625 atm if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant

Explanation:

Given that;

P₁ = 1.00 atm

P₂ = ?

V₁ = 1 L

V₂ = 1.60 L

the temperature of the gas is kept constant

we know that;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

so we substitute

1 × 1 = P₂ × 1.60

P₂ = 1 / 1.60

P₂ = 0.625 atm

Therefore the pressure inside the container become 0.625 atm if the piston is moved to the 1.60 L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant

If each washer has a mass of 4.9 g, then the mass of two washers in kilograms would be Given that F = ma, and if 4 washers are a
zysi [14]

Given that,

Mass of each washer  = 4.9 g

We need to calculate the mass of two washers in kg

Using conversion of unit

Mass of each washer m= 4.9\times10^{-3}\ Kg

So, Mass of two washers is

M=2\times m

Put the value of m

M=2\times4.9\times10^{-3}\ k

M=0.0098\ Kg

If 4 washer are attached to the spring

We need to calculate the applied force on the car

Using formula of force

F=mg

Put the value into the formula

F=4\times4.9\times10^{-3}\times9.8

F=0.192\ N

Hence, (i), The mass of two washers is 0.0098 kg.

(ii). The applied force on the car is 0.192 N.

A more realistic car would cause the wheels to spin in a manner that would result in the ground pushing it forward with a consta
-Dominant- [34]

The car would go from  zero to 58.0 mph in 2.6 sec.

Since the force on the car is constant, therefore the acceleration of the car would also be constant.

Now for constant acceleration we can use the equation of motion

Using first equation of motion to calculate the acceleration of the car

v=u+at

29=0+a×1.30       ...... Eq. (1)

Again using the first equation of motion

58=0+a*t             ....... Eq. (2)

Dividing eq. (2) with equation 1

t=2×1.3

t=2.6 sec
